I am glad and distressed too. I am glad that we have seen the back of the archaic pqarty(the reds who are living in a different era) at least for some time and they can use their terror in West Bengal. I am distressed because our ploitical system has suffered a body blow from which it cannot recover now.When Amar Singh initiated his moves, it became apparent as habits die hard. That the P.M. did not know of the machinations is too hard to swallow. Our politicians are far naiver than the common man. Thus Dr. Manmahon Singh will now have to be rechristened Dr. Moneymohan Singh. It was a disgrace for Mr. K.K.Advani to have made unwarranted charges. How doe it matter wethere Dr. Singh is controlled by a remote or not.Mr. Advani obviously laxcks the sidom of Mr. Vajpayee and we are not going to see another statesman like him. Maybe the Speaker one day could fill his shoes. At the end of the day,Mr. Advani's aspirations of becoming the country's P.M is in ashes. Fore one he is well past his prime and secondly, it looks doubtful whether he will even become a Minister. The less said about the so called third front the better.
